Biography of Union General George Henry Thomas
George Henry Thomas was a Virginia native, a veteran of the Mexican War (1846–1848), and a Union major general during the American Civil War (1861–1865) who earned the nickname "the Rock of Chickamauga" after his defensive stand at the Georgia battle in 1863. He won an early Union victory at the Battle of Mill Springs, Kentucky (1862), and decisively defeated the Confederate Army of Tennessee during the Battle of Nashville (1864). He also served as a subordinate at the Battle of Stone's River (1862–1863) and the Chattanooga Campaign (1863) in Tennessee and, under his West Point roommate Major General William Tecumseh Sherman, the 1864 Atlanta Campaign. Thomas was a slave owner before the war, but his experience commanding African American soldiers led him to change his views, and he became a staunch defender of civil rights during Reconstruction (1865–1876). As senior military commander in Kentucky and Tennessee from 1865 until 1869, he fought to protect African Americans from the Ku Klux Klan and other white-supremacist groups. He died of a stroke in 1870.
George Henry Thomas was born in Southampton County on July 31, 1816, the youngest son of a wealthy, slave-owning family of planters. He attended the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, from 1836 until 1840 and finished twelfth in a class of forty-two. (His classmates included Sherman and the future Confederate Lieutenant General Richard Stoddert Ewell.) Thomas would spend the rest of his life in military service.
He received a brevet promotion for distinguished service fighting the Seminole Indians in Florida in 1841 and two more for courage at the battles of Monterrey (1846) and Buena Vista (1847) during the Mexican War, making him one of the most decorated junior officers in the pre–Civil War army. After Mexico, Thomas served from 1851 until 1854 as an instructor of artillery and cavalry tactics at West Point, where he met and married Frances Lucretia Kellogg, the daughter of a New York merchant. The couple had a happy marriage, but no children. From 1854 until 1855, Thomas served at Fort Yuma, Arizona, and from 1855 until 1860 he served in Texas as a major in the 2nd Cavalry. When the secession crisis began, Thomas was on furlough, recovering from a severe back injury. Thinking himself too badly injured to return to active service, he sought a position as instructor at the Virginia Military Institute in Lexington in January 1861. In March, he turned down an unsolicited offer to serve in the Virginia state militia, and when he was called back to active service after the surrender of Fort Sumter at Charleston Harbor, South Carolina, on April 14, he immediately reported for duty.
Thomas struggled over whether to remain in the army or to resign his commission and join Virginia and the Confederacy. Ultimately, he sided with the Union. After the war, he explained that he felt his oath as an army officer to uphold the United States Constitution and to protect the national government left him no other choice. Thomas's Virginia relatives refused to speak to him after he sided with the Union, and while he later reconciled with his brothers, his sisters remained estranged from him until his death.
During the First Manassas Campaign (1861), Thomas served as the head of cavalry for a force that invaded Virginia (now West Virginia) near Martinsburg, and he fought a brief skirmish against Colonel James Ewell Brown "JEB" Stuart, commanding the Confederate cavalry. In August 1861, Thomas was promoted to brigadier general of volunteers and transferred to Kentucky, where he took charge of a camp of Union recruits south of Frankfort. On January 19, 1862, his force of slightly over 4,000 men decisively defeated a Confederate force of equal size at the Battle of Mill Springs. This victory secured eastern Kentucky for the Union and brought Thomas to national attention.
After Mill Springs, Thomas served under Major General Don Carlos Buell during the Shiloh and Perryville campaigns (1862) in Kentucky, but was not present at either battle. When U.S. President Abraham Lincoln attempted to replace Buell with Thomas during the Perryville Campaign, Thomas refused, stating that he did not want others to think he had schemed against his superior officer. After the Battle of Perryville, the War Department relieved Buell from command but did not replace him with Thomas, instead promoting Major General William Starke Rosecrans.
Thomas served effectively under Rosecrans as a corps commander in the Army of the Cumberland, the main Union force in Tennessee. He fought in the Battle of Stone's River, which lasted from December 31, 1862, until January 2, 1863, and the campaign that followed, which culminated in the capture of Chattanooga, Tennessee. Thomas's most important test came during the battle that followed the capture of Chattanooga, fought on September 19–20, 1863, just south of that city, in the woods and hills of northern Georgia near West Chickamauga Creek.
Thomas's corps occupied the northern flank of the Union line at Chickamauga, and received the brunt of the Confederate attacks on the first day of the battle. Throughout the day, Thomas skillfully maintained a defensive line and counterattacked to recover lost ground. On the second day of the battle, a series of errors and miscommunications between Rosecrans and his subordinates left a gap in the center of the Union line. Lieutenant General James Longstreet, commanding a Confederate corps sent to Tennessee from General Robert Edward Lee's Army of Northern Virginia, launched an attack directly into the gap. Longstreet's men poured through the hole in Union lines and spread out, attacking the Union forces in the flank and rear. Most of the Union army fled the field, along with Rosecrans and two of the army's corps commanders. By noon, Thomas's corps was the only organized force still on the field.
Thomas improvised a defensive line and held off repeated attacks from a numerically superior opponent. He led several counterattacks in person, at great risk, and his stand held the Confederate army at bay until nightfall, preventing them from pursuing and destroying the rest of the Union army. Lincoln remarked that "it is doubtful whether his heroism and skill … has ever been surpassed in this world," and Thomas is known as "the Rock of Chickamauga" to this day.
After Chickamauga, Thomas was promoted to command of the Army of the Cumberland. He was still subordinate to Major General Hiram Ulysses (Ulysses S.) Grant, however, whom Lincoln had appointed to run the war in the West and who traveled to Chattanooga to command in person. Thomas served effectively as Grant's subordinate during the Battle of Chattanooga, November 23–25, 1863, where his men spontaneously charged the Confederate lines atop Missionary Ridge and sent the Confederates into retreat. Thomas served under William T. Sherman during the 1864 Atlanta Campaign and fought in a number of engagements, including Kennesaw Mountain and Peachtree Creek, Georgia.
After the capture of Atlanta, Sherman took most of the Union army on his march through Georgia and the Carolinas, leaving Thomas with a mix of veteran and garrison troops to defend Tennessee. General John Bell Hood, the commander of the Confederate Army of Tennessee, decided not to follow Sherman south, instead turning north and invading Tennessee. Thomas concentrated his forces at Nashville and prepared a counterstroke. He attacked Hood outside the city on December 15, 1864, and in a two-day battle crushed Hood's army. This left Tennessee in secure Union control and rendered Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia vulnerable to Union raids.
Thomas commanded African American troops during the Battle of Nashville, and their bravery during the battle permanently changed his views on race. He had been a racial conservative during most of the war, but he changed after Nashville and became a staunch supporter of the rights of freedmen. From 1865 to 1869 he commanded the Union forces occupying Kentucky and Tennessee, and at different times his district also included Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, and West Virginia.
During Reconstruction, Thomas used his military power to protect African Americans from white violence and economic exploitation and sent troops to safeguard the polls so that freedmen could vote. When local courts refused to prosecute whites for attacking blacks, Thomas tried them in military tribunals. When local city officials adopted discriminatory racial policies, he threatened them with military detention. Thomas recognized early the power and organization of the Ku Klux Klan and tried to stamp out the organization with military force. Unfortunately, these efforts failed as a result of a lack of troops on the ground and the refusal of local white civil authorities to cooperate.
Thomas was assigned to command of the Department of the Pacific in 1869 and he died of a stroke in San Francisco, California, on March 28, 1870. He was the first major Union general to die after the Civil War, and his coffin was greeted by crowds throughout its transfer back to the East. Grant, then the U.S. president, and many senior government officials attended a large public funeral at Thomas's wife's church in Troy, New York. In 1879, veterans erected a monument in his memory in Washington, D.C., where it still stands at the center of Thomas Circle.
After Grant and Sherman, Thomas made perhaps the largest contribution of any Union general to the success of the Union war effort. Particularly important were his stand at Chickamauga, which denied the Confederacy the chance to destroy a Union army, and his victory at Nashville, which neutralized the main Confederate army in the Western Theater. Northerners admired Thomas during and immediately after the war as the example of a loyal Southerner, who made the "right" choice during secession. As the two sections reconciled late in the 1800s and early in the 1900s, Thomas's reputation declined. Today, his significance to history lies not only in his military record, but also in his conversion from slave owner to defender of civil rights.

Already the top school fund-raising event for the American Diabetes Association, the Keller district's ninth annual School Walk for Diabetes on March 29 should be the biggest yet.
Last year's walk included more than 600 walkers and raised in excess of $44,000. In the fall, Keller was recognized by the American Diabetes Association for raising the most money of any district in the nation.
Keller school nurses organize the event to increase awareness of type 1 and type 2 diabetes and to raise funds for the American Diabetes Association to find a cure.
"You can't do anything about getting type 1 diabetes, but we sure want to find a cure," said Deborah Gregor, Keller High nurse and a founding organizer. "The risk for type 2 can change with lifestyle. Nutrition and exercise can delay or reverse the risks of type 2 diabetes."
This year's event at the Keller ISD stadium is much more than a walk. Dallas Sidekicks will present a soccer clinic from 8 to 9 a.m. An NFL Punt, Pass and Kick competition will take place. Baylor Grapevine Hospital will conduct health screenings. Sodexo, the district's food service provider, will offer cooking demonstrations and healthy snacks. Live entertainment, face painting and a photo booth and a few big surprises will also be part of the festivities.
Participants can donate ($5 a ticket or 5 for $20) for chances to win Dallas Cowboys tickets, a 50-inch television, a laptop and more. Walkers are eligible to win a portion of $10,000 in door prizes. A silent auction will include two nights at the Gaylord Texan, golf packages and gift baskets.
The walk is Keller's wrap up event for the Lifestyle Improvement Challenge, a competition among Keller, Grapevine-Colleyville, Birdville, Hurst-Euless-Bedford and Northwest school districts. The contest — sponsored by Baylor Grapevine Hospital — awards points to districts for offering programs promoting health and wellness. The district earning the most points receives $25,000, second receives $15,000 and third gets $10,000 from Baylor Grapevine.
To register online for Keller's School Walk for Diabetes, go to main.diabetes.org. For more information, email firstname.lastname@example.com. Participants may register in person at 8 a.m. The walk begins at 9:30 a.m. Registration is $10 per person. T-shirts are available for an additional $10.

You should arrive at the airport for your overnight flight to Bali.
After our afternoon arrival, we transfer to the four-star Plataran Hotel & Spa in Ubud for three nights with breakfast.
This morning is free to relax and explore your hotel. From its small frontage along one of Ubud's main streets, the hotel opens out into a large plot, encircled by peaceful paddy fields and ending at a swimming pool surrounded by luxuriant greenery. The hotel's spa is on the top floor of the main building and offers beautiful views. In the afternoon we visit Ubud's famous Monkey Forest nature reserve and temple, home to several troops of free-roaming long-tailed macaques. Ubud's artistic heritage is well-known, and today you'll have the opportunity to explore this further. Tonight you will enjoy a performance of traditional Balinese dances including dinner at a local restaurant.
Today we set off to discover the parts of central Bali seldom visited by tourists. Using Land Rovers and Land Cruisers we drive through small villages and lanes with beautiful views over the lush forests, mountains and rice terraces – the essence of Bali. We'll stop at a local farm and learn about the unique way the Balinese live in communal family compounds and the techniques they have developed over the centuries to maintain and irrigate their complex system of paddy fields, which has created the distinctive landscape of the island. After an included lunch, we continue to the Batukaru temple, built in a stunning location in the middle of the rainforest on the slopes of Mount Batukaru, the second-highest mountain on the island.
After breakfast, we say goodbye to Ubud and continue our exploration of Bali's fascinating interior with a visit to Tirta Empul, the temple of the holy water spring, dating from 960AD, where the faithful come to bathe and be purified in its rectangular carved pools. Our journey continues ever-upwards through the lush forests of central Bali, and we soon arrive for our included lunch where you'll enjoy some of the island's most spectacular views along the rim of Mount Batur's caldera. This is Bali's most active volcano whose cone lies within two concentric calderas. The original volcano is estimated to have been over 4,000 metres high before it erupted thousands of years ago. We then travel towards the quiet beaches of Bali's north coast, arriving at the small resort of Lovina in the late afternoon. Our hotel for two nights is the four-star Lovina Beach Resort, with breakfast.
Early this morning you have the opportunity to take an early-morning trip, at an additional charge, on small outrigger-style boats to watch the spectacular sunrise and the pods of dolphins native to the area. The rest of the day is free to relax in your idyllic hotel. The swimming pool and bar overlook the black volcanic-sand beach, still used by local fishermen. Perhaps indulge in some pampering at the extensive spa. The hotel offers a regular shuttle service into town should you wish to explore further. In the evening, we enjoy an included buffet dinner by the beach.
After breakfast, we depart Lovina and travel back south, stopping to take in one of Bali's most well-known views, the temple of Ulun Danu, perfectly placed on its own small island in Lake Beratan. We continue to the main airport, where we take a short domestic flight to the small port town of Labuan Bajo on the island of Flores, to the east of Bali. We stay for two nights at the three-star Jayakarta Flores Hotel, with breakfast.
Early this morning we set off by boat across the Komodo Archipelago towards the island of Rinca, part of the Komodo National Park. As we cross the azure waters studded with islands, a refreshing sea breeze in our hair, the low hills of Rinca slowly come into view. We drop anchor in the small bay and your sense of anticipation rises as you are about to confront the world's largest lizard! The island is one of the best places to spot Komodo dragons: it's smaller than Komodo island itself and being slightly closer to Labuan Bajo, this means a shorter boat journey and more time on the island. All visitors must be accompanied by local rangers who are specially trained in spotting and interpreting Komodo dragon behaviour. There are several trails to follow, mostly through forest and bush, which are easily walkable by anyone with an average level of fitness. If you are lucky, you may also spot water buffalo and deer, which are the dragon's main food sources. On our way back to Labuan Bajo, we'll have time for a spot of swimming and snorkelling (equipment provided) along the stunning coral reefs. Tonight we round off a wonderful day with an included dinner at a local sea-front restaurant.
Today we'll fly back to Bali, where we stay for four nights at the excellent five-star Nusa Dua Beach Hotel – with plenty of time to enjoy the hotel's many facilities and the award-winning spa. The Nusa Dua area is located in the southernmost part of Bali and boasts sweeping white-sand beaches, excellent restaurants and a popular golf course.
This afternoon, we bid farewell to 'the Island of the Gods' and take our overnight flight via Doha.
You arrive home today.
You have three entire days to relax in your hotel, which is one of the best in Bali. Should you wish to venture out, there's a pedestrianised beachside path that passes in front of other neighbouring resorts, so you can try out their restaurants as well. If you prefer more local fare, there are numerous 'warungs' – a small restaurant or café typical of Bali – just outside the entrance to the Nusa Dua area, a short walk or taxi ride away.

Anderl Heckmair: My Life, Eiger North Face, Grand Jorasses and Other Adventures. Anderl Heckmair. Translated by Tim Carruthers. Foreword by Reinhold Messner. Seattle: The Mountaineers Books, 2002. 304 pages. $24.95.
While best known for his role in the 1938 success on the north face of the Eiger, Anderl Heckmair has always embraced the classic mountaineer's lifestyle of travel, curiosity, gainful unemploy ment and rich experience, even extending it into his tenth decade (he was over 90 at the time of this revision and reissue of his classic memoir, My Life as a Mountaineer). The publisher states that this book is the first in a series of biographies in a "Mountain Masters" series; we might be curious to see what follows it, since many of the world's best-known climbers have already published an autobiography or two or three.
American audiences may have some trouble in recognizing the author's name, standing as he does in the shadow of his better-known ropemate Heinrich Harrer. Heckmair went on from the Eiger success to a life of lecturing, professional guiding, and mountaineering instruction, and continued traveling and seeking out new routes, but in a more private and less commercial fash ion than many another successful climber. His one large-scale Himalayan expedition, to the Karakoram in 1953, came about as a choice between the well-known and well-funded Herrligkoffer expedition to Nanga Parbat, and a smaller one put together by some friends. He chose the smaller expedition, which turned into a series of disappointments, yet never regretted having dropped out of the more successful Nanga Parbat trip. His goal, was to have memories, not fame.
Heckmair's life has certainly left him with enough of those. One of the difficulties of climbing autobiographies lies in making them seem interesting to non-climbers. In the case of Heckmair, though, we have long discussions of learning to ski, his friendship with cinematog rapher Leni Riefenstahl, his resulting indirect relationship with Adolph Hitler, and, finally, some long chapters on traveling in Africa, South America, and the United States. His emphasis throughout is on adventure and satisfying his innate curiosity about the world, and it is in those sections that his personality comes through most clearly.
There are some difficulties with the tone of many passages, but it is hard to tell how much of that comes from the ordeal of translating German into English and how much is actually the result of what seems to be a very real difference in attitude towards climbing in Europe as opposed to America. Throughout the book the many references to friends and acquaintances who lose their lives climbing are brief and somehow unsatisfying, but whether that is due to Heckmair's privacy and reticence or to a more general insouciance is unclear.
For most people, the book's central appeal will come from the chance to read a new first-hand account of the Eiger Nordwand ascent, and that is certainly one of its stronger chapters. By coincidence, at the time I was reading it, Alpinist magazine's issue #2 came out with an article by Thomas Ulrich ("In the Footsteps of Heckmair") about a modern-day ascent of the Nordwand that was deliberately completed using original clothing and equipment. (The one exception was the hemp rope, which was given a core of nylon for safety's sake). The whole project was filmed, of course, and Heckmair was consulted for points of accuracy; but the gist of the article was the respect that the reenactment engendered for the commitment and talent of the first-ascent party.
There has never been any dispute that Heckmair was the star of the 1938 show; those who wish to know more about the man, and the charges of Nazi propagandism that haunted him for years afterwards, would do well to read this book.

The Music Of Hawaii: Roots And Influences: Ukulele Or Guitar
'The Music of Hawaii' is surely among the most evocative in the world. Using 20 songs presented as sheet music and original audio, this highly original book explores the roots of Hawaii's musical culture as well as its far-reaching influences.
The story of how a few tiny Pacific islands blazed a musical trail across the American mainland and beyond is a uniquely fascinating one.
Hawaii gave the world the slide Guitar and the Ukulele, not to mention some players of quite dazzling virtuosity.
Far from peddling the dreamy mood music of popular perception, the best Hawaiian musicians soon fused their traditional stylings with with jazz, blues, mainstream and country music genres.
The compliment was returned and - from blues and vaudeville to the Nashville sound and the dance band era - Hawaiian music left its indelible mark on the world's popular music.

Sony OLED TV promises supreme picture, hides speakersThe Sony A1E combines all of the picture quality advantages of OLED with audio integrated into the stand and the screen itself.
Hi this is Sony's A1E Oled television. The big deal here is that this is the first time Sony has produced an Oled television for sale that the US markets. Until now it has been all LG televisions, and of course Oled delivers the best picture Quality ever tested. We expect this Sony A1E to follow suit, superb picture quality is what we can see here. Those really great OLED, especially deep black levels, the color looks really good. Of course we'll find out for sure when we get to see lab a little bit later this year. Sony has not announced pricing availability yet, we do expect it to be relatively expensive. Just for reference LG's current OLEDs are 2,000 and $3,000 for the 55 and 65 inch size Figure these Sony's will be maybe a little bit more expensive than that. One of the things that set Sony apart is the sound system on this television. If you look at the back it actually has these four little transducers on either side that are kind of arranging in T-pattern. Those serve to actually vibrate the screen of the TV itself. The effect is you actually get the sound coming from the screen. So it's the first time ever that a television has ever had the screen produce the sound. Sony says that it creates a much more submersive effect so the actor's voice for example come directly from their mouths on the screen. Can't wait to test that. Sony's A1E OLED is available in a 55, 65, and 77 inch size. The flat panel television has all the fixings including HDR with HDR 10 and Dolby Digital compatibility. Again, we expect superior picture quality. That's a look at Sony's A1E OLED TV, David Castameyer at CES 2017.

in response to gianiaz
I did a step ahead and 2 step back. :-(
The previous error was simply caused by a typo in the url of the new version air file.
Now I'm tryng to do the same thing the sample application does on my app.
I've included the swf file "applicationupdater_ui.swf", I've Inserted at the top of the file :
appUpdater = new runtime.air.update.ApplicationUpdaterUI();
appUpdater.configurationFile = new air.File("app:/defaults/updates-config.xml");
// appUpdater.initialize();
appUpdater = new runtime.air.update.ApplicationUpdaterUI();
appUpdater.configurationFile = new air.File("app:/defaults/updates-config.xml");
If I remove the comment on the third line I got this error:
ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property mx.resources:IResourceManager::initializeLocaleChain not found on mx.resources.ResourceManagerImpl and there is no default value.
at mx.managers::SystemManager/installCompiledResourceBundles()

Many many thanks to the lads who attended our first Question of Sport Evening at St Mary's.
We had a few technical difficulties incuding the 'power' being pulled at one stage - but I'm sure it never stopped anyone from drinking.
The lads I spoke to at the end of the night all appeared to have enjoyed themselves.
We will post how much we made later on and many thanks to the lads who graciously donated to the 'Dave Looby' fund.

Hello all,
I spoke with Si today and thanked him again for your kind words, texts, support and extreme generosity during Daniel's difficult time.
Can I ask that all the managers pass this message on, as I do know some of the lads don't get to read these pages.
Our thanks and gratitude to everyone who is supporting and praying for Daniel and all my family. He is making great progress under the expert care of Alder Hey and we are all really proud of how brave he is being.
Finally, I am hoping to make a bit of a comeback before the end of the season (after my torn cartilage operation in January), so Andy Rannard, don't get to comfy with your 'other' centre half partners ;-)
Thanks again lads, see you all soon...
P.S. Congratulations on a successful night for Sacre Coeur. Hopefully this has just made a great club even greater...

Pinewood Studios grew up around Heatherden Hall - a magnificent Victorian mansion in Buckinghamshire, on the edge of London. The studios have been at the heart of the British film industry since the 1930s and have seen productions from the 'Carry On' films to James Bond, and nearly everything in between. Film and cinema has definitely influenced my work as a photographer, so it was a real treat to get behind the scenes with my camera and photograph this beautiful wedding at such a unique venue.
I joined Alan beforehand at the Bull Hotel in Gerrards Cross where many of the guests assembled. Alan is Irish and it was St. Patrick's day, so a few pints of the black stuff managed to steady any nerves. A double-decker London bus ferried the guests to the studio lot at Pinewood and Priya arrived shortly afterwards looking stunning in her Donna Spyrou dress. Heatherden Hall and the gardens provided a beautiful backdrop to the day. I loved photographing this wedding and everything about the celebration - there was a great atmosphere, everyone had come for a party and a good time!
From the bride and groom:
"The pics are amazing, exactly what we were looking for! Some absolute gems in there. I love the one of our friend Adam feeding his little kid right beneath the Bond Villain with his cat. It's like life imitating art, priceless!"

Posted by Christy O'Connor
Friday 1 July 2016
From our GAA Experts to football fans all over Ireland, this week's Win, Lose or Draw predictions are starting to take shape.
In the aftermath of Clonmel Commercials late and dramatic Munster club final win against Nemo Rangers last November, Clonmel manager Charlie McGeever referred to a sense of history which had been building for close to a decade, and which had just been realised.
McGeever though, wasn't just speaking in isolation; Clonmel's journey had followed a similar path to the one forged by Tipperary football in recent years. "We have broken the mould," said McGeever. "We have mirrored ourselves on Tipperary in the sense that there are so many crossovers between the players. It shows the work that is being done. This is a win for Tipperary because nearly everybody that is contributing to Tipperary is contributing to Commercials."
The achievement was massive. Nemo were going for their 16th Munster title. A Tipp club had never won the Munster club but Commercials' quality was a reflection of the potential within the county. That has completely been evident by the club's presence during the Tipperary underage football revolution over the last decade.
Commercials had four starters on the Tipp minor team which won the 2011 All-Ireland minor title, and three starters on the side which narrowly lost last year's All-Ireland U-21 final to Tyrone. Two players from the club featured on the team which contested last year's All-Ireland minor final.
There is a clear correlation to Clonmel's success with the underage progress Tipp have made. In the last decade, Tipp have contested seven Munster minor finals and seven Munster U-21 finals, winning four titles from those 14 appearances. That record is even more impressive considering Tipperary only contested 15 provincial underage finals at minor and U-21 in the preceding 77 years. Some of those were breakthrough successes, with Tipp's first U-21 title arriving in 2010. Tipp have still to crack the code at senior level but the culture is radically changing in the county and a huge threshold was crossed last month with a first championship victory against Cork since 1944.
Tipp were a decent underage force from 1983 to 1987 when contesting four Munster finals, two minor and two U-21. They won a minor title in 1984 before losing U-21 finals to Cork and Kerry by one point in 1986 and 1987. That success though, stemmed from one group of players whereas the current underage success has been far more sustained because the proper structures have been in place to facilitate that development and improvement.
The biggest change has been the broad cultural spread of the game across the county. Three of last year's minor squad were from Drom & Inch, one of the strongest hurling clubs in the county. Eight of that Tipp squad also played in the All-Ireland minor hurling final two weeks before the football decider.
Kevin O'Halloran, who steered Tipp to victory over Cork, made it onto the Tipp team without ever having played club senior football. His club Portroe, a traditional hurling club in North Tipperary, don't play football beyond U-21 level.
After playing well in a club U-21 game against Shannon Rovers last year, O'Halloran got a call from Joe Hannigan, who is involved with 'Friends of Tipperary Football', asking him to come to U-21 training that evening in Thurles. The call arrived at 6.40pm. Training was at 7.30. Hannigan picked up O'Halloran in Nenagh shortly afterwards and they didn't arrive in Thurles until 7.45pm. A few weeks later, O'Halloran was top scorer in the Munster U-21 final win against Cork.
Tipp are absolutely maximising their resources but they've had to more than ever this year. When they played their first championship match against Waterford in May, Tipp were down 11 of the 21 players which featured in the same fixture 12 months earlier, including three young pillars around which new manager Liam Kearns would have been building his team; Colin O'Riordan, Stephen O'Brien and Seamus Kennedy. O'Riordan is gone to the AFL with the Sydney Swans while Kennedy and O'Brien are with the senior hurlers. The remainder of the absentee list was down to injury, travel, unavailability and retirement.
A couple of those injured players have returned but Kearns still had to mould a new structure in defence and midfield. O'Riordan and O'Brien were a formidable midfield partnership but a new pairing of George Hannigan and Peter Acheson, which played against Cork, will now have to go up against the strongest midfield in the country. Kieran Donaghy and Bryan Sheehan played there against Clare, with Kerry's best pairing of David Moran and Anthony Maher coming off the bench.
Tipp will just have to do what Dublin always do, or try to, on their own kickout against Kerry – don't launch the ball down on top of their midfield. That's easier said than done but at least goalkeeper Evan Comerford has that range, and distance, in his kicking game.
Comerford is one of six starters from the U-21 team which reached last year's All-Ireland final, four of which make up the back seven. That's a big test against a Kerry attack with so much firepower and class. They had ten different scorers while James O'Donoghue still has to return.
After the league final, any question marks about Kerry focused on their defence, some of which resurfaced against Clare when they conceded 0-17. Debutantes Brian Begley and Tadgh Morley added some of the pace and energy that Dublin were lacking in the league final but Kerry's defence is likely to receive more makeovers yet before they settle on the right defensive blend.
Tipp will ask some questions of that defence on Sunday. Acheson is a really penetrating player going forward, Philip Austin has huge experience while Conor Sweeney and Brian Fox, outstanding against Cork, will get scores. O'Halloran is deadly from placed balls while Michael Quinlivan is their X-factor player.
Apart from their new culture of success at underage, Tipp have always had that air of confidence when playing Kerry. Paul Galvin said in his column recently that he always felt Tipp never rated Kerry as highly as other counties did. These Tipp players will stick their chests out and have a go but they won't be able to repel Kerry's firepower and stop the machine marching forward.
Tipperary football is creating a vibrant new culture but the mould at inter-county senior level hasn't been fully broken yet.
Watch Independent News and Media Journalist Roy Curtis and eir GAA ambassador Tomás Ó Sé chat about the upcoming Kerry vs Tipperary match;
There's general agreement on who our GAA experts are predicting will win all this weekends games, apart from Donegal vs Monaghan which is again a close call;

Education for free
The Slovakia circulates a lot of myths, particularly ideas about what must be free. For example - education should be free - children of poor parents should know at least read and write.

Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Elton John, Paul McCartney and Phil Collins top choice for 'super group'
Credit: Metro UK
When it comes to the world's greatest band, it seems only aged male rockers need apply.
Sir Elton John, Phil Collins and Sir Paul McCartney were chosen ahead of a host of musical greats when Britons were asked to cast their votes.
Late Queen showman Freddie Mercury was chosen to front the band with 40 per cent of the vote – forcing Mick Jagger, Bono and One Direction's Harry Styles into the wings. Were it left to the men, Jimi Hendrix would have been on lead guitar but 37 per cent of women voted for Brian May.
There was no room for any female musicians – with Madonna, Kate Bush, Stevie Nicks and Karen Carpenter all missing out.
The collective age of the 'supergroup' would be over 300, assuming Mercury, who died aged 45, was still alive. 'There is no doubt this is an amazing super band that would have been amazing to see live,' said a spokesman for Barclaycard bespoke offers which commissioned the poll.
'I think we were all surprised to see Harry Styles finish bottom for vocals. However, he was up against some tough competition.'
More than half the 2,000 people surveyed were aged under 45.

How to CookChocolate
Chocolate, Granola, and Cold Brew, Together In The Same Bowl
Granola gets a dose of chocolate for breakfast, and mornings are all the better for it. We partnered with Califia Farms to show you how Gena Hamshaw makes this not-too-sweet, not-too-savory breakfast.
There's granola—the kind that's light and crumbly and perfect for sprinkling daintily onto yogurt or fruit—and then there's granola, the sort that's dense and hefty and baked into clusters. This is the sort of granola that, with a splash of milk (or even on its own, eaten by the handful), can be breakfast.
As you might have guessed, this is the sort of granola that I like to eat, and there are certain tricks to getting it right: low baking temperature, longer baking time, brown rice syrup as a sweetener, if you've got it. You can use these methods with any favorite granola recipe, but lately, I've been loving a batch that's spiked with cocoa powder and sea salt; I keep sweetness to a minimum, so that the slight bitterness of chocolate can truly shine through.
As it turns out, that splash of milk I mentioned is even better when it's a splash of cool, creamy, delightfully caffeinated cold brew coffee. I always jump at the chance to combine coffee and chocolate because the flavors go together so famously, and as it turns out, mixing them in a breakfast bowl works just as well.
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1/2 cup large flake coconut
- 1/2 cup sunflower or pumpkin seeds
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans or slivered almonds
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 3/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt or kosher salt
- 1/3 cup olive oil (or a neutral oil, such as refined avocado or grapeseed)
- 1/2 to 2/3 cups brown rice syrup or maple syrup (you can adjust this to fit your preference for sweetness)
- 1 shot (1 1/2-2 ounces) espresso, cooled slightly (optional)
- 4 cups Califia Farms XX Expresso Cold Brew, for serving
We partnered with Califia Farms to share Gena Hamshaw's new favorite morning boost. Inspired by what plants can do, Califia Farms crafts flavorful plant milks from nature's bounty, like almonds, coconut, and more—see all their products here.

My Win7 computer is on a domain and has mounted a mixture of DFS drives and the shared network drives to drive letters by Group Policy Preferences and that worked fine. After I upgrade it to Windows 10 and leave File Explorer showing the mapped Drives for a few minutes of inactivity, it will close by itself for no apparent reason. I have to have to re-open explorer and navigate to the folder and could not figure out how to resolve the problem.
If any file or folder on a couple of different mappings drive letters via Group Policy under network locations in File Explore will disappear or close, it may be caused by that your mapped network shares is using the REPLACE feature on Windows 10/8 client. Turning off "Tablet mode" is not working. You could try the method to fix the issue.
How to fix Network Mapped Drives disappearing or closing automatically in File Explorer on Windows 10/8
* Press Win + R from your keyboard, type gpedit.msc in Run dialog box, and hit Enter to launch Group Policy Management. Or you can input gpedit.msc in Start menu to search and select it from results.
* Right-click your drive mapping Group Policy object (GPO), and then select Edit.
* Double click on USER CONFIGURATION to expand the folders , go to Preferences > Windows Settings > Drive Maps.
* locate the drive map which has the automatically closing problem in File Explorer, and double click on it to open its properties.
* From the General tab, change the ACTION drop down menu from REPLACE to UPDATE, and click Apply > OK button.

While everyone in the Gandhi family has fallen for Montu's charm, Hasmukh sees him for the trickster he is. Not wanting his daughter to be entrapped, Hasmukh has found the perfect boy for her; one who is not only trustworthy, but also someone he knows will take care of her.

Agents of SHIELD Recap: A Prison Break Reveals A Monster Mash
In the opening episodes of this uneven season, Marvel's ABC drama "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." has been working to find the right balance between its fiery, forward-looking stories featuring the occult world of Ghost Rider and the (at best) stuck in neutral theatrics of its long-running Inhuman saga. With last night's generally average "Lockup" episode, the series may have found one way to tie the two ideas together thematically. And it's all about monster making.
The hour starts out with a literally spooky flashback sure to entice longtime Marvel readers as the series currently ghostly big bad Lucy and her fellow globetrotting scientist/general scumbag husband break in to musty basement in search of the Book of Darkhold. Eagle-eyed watchers may not the piles of discarded motorcycle parts and the faded poster for the Quentin Carnival – both tell-tale signs that this is the home of the originally flaming skullhead Johnny Blaze. Though if you're holding out for a surprise Nicholas Cage cameo later this season, we're not betting the original Ghost Rider will live again (think of how much teasing we got about the "real" Mandarin from Marvel Studios). In the meantime, Lucy and her man discover that Darkhold reads you as much as you read it, revealing itself in mysterious ways.
Flashing back to the present, Agent Coulson's team is on as dicey a quest as it ever is. In need to track down the modern ghost Lucy before she infects more people with her otherworldly madness, the crew decides to use their government powers to take current Rider Robbie Reyes' uncle out of prison so he can point them to Darkhold's current location (even though Lucy's currently beating them to it without the ability to turn its pages an one of the undead). This op is being kept off the books from S.H.I.E.L.D., which always works out well – especially when Lucy infects the prison guards and releases armies of Inhuman-hating Watchdog prisoners. From there, the team has to fight their way out of the cellblocks and to freedom with Robbie's uncle.
And while that basic plot eats up the entire hour with a few expected beat down moments, it's important to look at what the mission means for our most conflicted characters. Yes, the prisonbreak scheme allows us to watch Mack walk around with a slick designed version of his previously makeshift axe gun, but it's far more revealing for both Daisy and Robbie. The former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent reveals to her ally why she's been such a skulky flake this season. "I keep my distance because that's what's best for everyone," she says establishing a motivation that's been murky at best all year. And one can argue whether this motivation truly makes sense considering what we've seen of the character over three-plus seasons, but at least her fear of becoming a dangerous monster who harms those close to her drives the story forward here. It even helps explain why the woman known as Quake doesn't unleash her Inhuman powers when she gets cornered in a prison kitchen by wave-after-wave of bigots bent on her destruction, though the series could make her status more explicit on that front if they want to keep the audience engaged fully.
Meanwhile, Robbie struggles with his own darker half as the prison break brings him into contact with perhaps the last living member of the gang who crippled his beloved brother. The former banger is on a calm path to reform, waiting out both his sentence and the prison riot by chilling and reading Stephen King. But Reyes' desire for revenge can't be contained even when he should be helping his uncle escape. The Ghost Rider flames alive and burns the gang member (who wasn't even in action when his brother got hit) – giving into the monster inside himself at the worst possible moment. Here we see the connection between Robbie's curse and Daisy's. Both live in a world where holding on to who they feel they really are only causes pain and suffering, but while Daisy turns away from her path, Robbie holds onto his. And to the show's credit, neither option seems tenable in a world bent on destroying both of them.
This idea of the ironic state of those seen as monsters comes into even sharper focus with our B-plot between Agent Simmons and smiley Director Mace. She's trying her best to conceal the secret that Fitz dropped on her about Aida's true identity. He's trying to push back publicly against Inhuman-hating Senator Nadeer. And while Fitz helps her boss get the job done up until the point where he reveals his true nature as an Inhuman to George Stephanopoulis (hi, ABC crosspromotion!), she also sees a moment of hidden truth in him. Mace is hiding something about his own past that makes us doubt whether he's the square-jawed hero he presents to the world. It's a great bargaining chip for Jemma to get him off her back, but it also puts him in a precarious position as a clandestine meeting with Nadeer sees the senator blackmail him with evidence of Coulson's prison op. All of this forces the reader to ask who the real monsters are in the show – something that can only get murkier as Ghost Rider is drawn into the crossfire.
In the end, Robbie's need for vengeance delivers his uncle right into Lucy's hands, leaving everyone on the show in the worst possible position as the Book of Darkhold is now in a position to unleash its ghost-creating powers en mass. In its own way, its a connective-tissue episode – one that sets up future conflicts more than delivers its own fireworks. But at lease we know exactly which fuse is being lit going forward.

Everyone has heard of the "Something old, something new…etc" bridal tradition, but do you know where it comes from?
This tradition actually comes from an Old English rhyme:
Something Olde, Something New,
Something Borrowed, Something Blue,
A Sixpence in your Shoe
and the four objects that the bride adds to her wedding outfit or carries with her on the big day are just meant to be good luck charms.
Per the poem, the bride must collects the five objects herself or from friends and family.
These are pieces of good luck and often times heirlooms or family treasures handed down in a right of passage. In order to get the good fortune she must where them on the day of her wedding.
Oh, those nutty Victorians!
Something old represents continuity; something new offers optimism for the future; something borrowed symbolizes borrowed happiness; something blue stands for purity, love, and fidelity; and a sixpence in your shoe is a wish for good fortune and prosperity, although this remains largely a British custom. Sixpences are silver coins used in the 17th-20th century in both England and Maryland. For the most part, the "sixpence" line has pretty much fallen by the wayside.
We've actually got a brand new item that ties in nicely with this age-old tradition.
The "Something Old, Something New, Something Blue Necklace" has the Brides monogrammed initials on the back to represent 'something old', her new initials on the front of the necklace for 'something new', and a blue gemstone for the 'something blue' part.
She would just have to borrow something to complete the tradition.
And maybe put a quarter in her shoe 😉

Such an excellent post!ReplyDelete
One thing that occurred to me as I read a bit of it was the fact that when Israel, et al had evil kings. for the most part, it wasn't because the people put them there. Son followed father, who had followed father. Even so, the people had to suffer thru the judgment that fell upon the nation in response to the evil deeds of the kings.
We can't plead innocence. We can't claim to be victims. WE, the people, voted in those who support evil into office. In fact, many people vote for these leaders because they support evil.
Margaret, I too have prayed that we be spared because of the remnant of believers who show that they put God before wallets and political correctness.
But it looks bad...
Totally agree with what you are saying here Meg. We do need to pray for the next elections; we need to pray that God will rise up leaders who want to lead biblically with direction from God. We are definitely in the minority though, you are right. Such a sad statement, isn't it, that we would turn away from God (figuratively speaking, not you and me, but country as a whole).ReplyDelete

So once again you are amongst the idiots spouting "God is a republican" Republicans are the war mongers and the rich men that are talked about in the bible. Helping the poor? Just which diety admonish this as one of the CHIEF commandments to his followers? This kind of mindset and the publishing of it by the radical right such as yourself will INSURE that republicans CONTINUE to shrink. THIS may be GODS will!ReplyDeleteReplies
Dear Anonymouse,Delete
You may want to reread the post. Margaret clearly stated that it wasn't about political parties. It is an understandable assumption on your part, I suppose, considering the propensity of many Democratic to espouse ungodly views.
That tendency is not true of all Democrats, tho. I'm a lifelong Dem and agree with Margaret's post completely. Which just goes to show you--Margaret was right; it's not a party thing.
You may want to take a swipe at that chip on your shoulder. It's hindering your ability to engage in reasonable debate.
Thank you for your response, Anonymous. I still haven't figured out why, in today's world, if folks disagree with someone, they feel they must resort to name calling and rudeness.Delete
I can't find "war monger" in the Bible. Care to share the scripture to which you are referring?
It may, indeed, be God's will that political parties shrink. I would be most happy if they did. If we become less party-inclined, and more God-inclined, I believe that America's problems will quickly be solved one by one. The more we put God first, the more of His blessing we will reap.
Radical right? Why, thank you. I'd much rather be on the right side every time, just as I am this time.
Thank you, Deb. Well said!Delete
I agree with you Margaret - we need to be in prayer now for the next election - if there are still two parties. We are a minority I am afraid. But I will live a minority until I die.ReplyDelete

I think you need to pray for some good common sense and a better brain. Learn to think for yourself instead of what is dictated in a centuries old book written by those who influenced what went in it. I don't think Jesus would advocate the hatred and violence that is dictated in the Bible. Do you realize that if we followed the Bible literally, you would not be able to have the job you do and would probably be a slave to some chauvinist? We would be no better than Muslims. I think you need to get off your high horse and stop preaching the doom and gloom. Jeez.ReplyDeleteReplies
That's probably a good prayer for anyone to pray! I think you don't understand exactly what Jesus did on the cross, and you're missing out on such a wonderful thing.Delete
Every word of the Bible is true, my friend. It is an inconvenient truth and foolishness to those who haven't accepted Christ as their personal savior. Even Christians sometimes forget that we don't clean ourselves up before coming to Christ...we submit to Him, and we are changed by Him.
Doom and gloom? Nah. There is still the hope that America will turn our faces back to Christ before we all learn exactly what "doom and gloom" is. It does, after all, rain on the just and the unjust...the difference being that as His children we can have His peace no matter how bad things get, and we have the promise of life beyond this old world.
I haven't gotten on my high horse. Yet. Please understand that this little piece of cyberspace is what I paid for, and I have the freedom to "preach" whatever I want.
Have a good week.
Thank you for taking the time and sharing this information with us. It was indeed very helpful and insightful while being straight forward and to the point custom signsReplyDelete

James Hibberd debunks eight misconceptions and rumors about the upcoming fifth season of HBO's "Game of Thrones." SPOILERS AHEAD about some of those rumors. For the season debuting this spring, the characters of Bran Stark (Isaac Hempstead-Wright) and Hodor (Kristian Nairn) will not be appearing. Tywin Lannister (Charles Dance) did indeed die in the fourth season finale, so if he is on screen it might be in a flashback or as a corpse. An Iron Islands subplot from the book "A Feast of Crows" will not be featured. Author George R.R. Martin has lobbied for 13 episodes per season, but producers are adamant that 10 hours are more than enough. Entertainment Weekly
Showtime finally announces a replacement for the late Philip Seymour Hoffman in their anticipated comedy series "Happyish." Oscar-nominated writer and actor Steve Coogan will now star as a Brisish expatriate whose world is thrown off track when a young new boss is hired. Network president David Nevins says he had been obsessed with getting Hoffman but now with Coogan: "It's the actor you're not looking for who's the right one." Variety

Raising funds through cycling to find a cure for Multiple Myeloma
The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Research Foundation is doing an incredible job of raising awareness of this devastating cancer, and providing resources to researchers who are diligently working to find a cure to heal and restore affected individuals and their families who have fought this battle for life. It is my goal to recruit people to sign up to ride their bicycle 24,902 miles, the distance around the earth at the equator, over a period of several years, and they can recruit donors to donate a certain amount for every mile they ride per month or per year. Anyone can volunteer for this challenge: men, women, or teenagers.
This website can be used to keep track of miles per month and total miles per person towards the goal of 24,902 miles. Hopefully researchers will discover a cure for MM before we finish the 24,902 mile journey.
I typically ride between 200 to 350 miles per month, depending on my schedule and the weather. In 2011 and 2012, I rode my bike 2440 and 3367miles, respectively. From January 1, 2011 to July 31, 2013, I rode my bike 7604 miles, which is almost 1/3 the distance around planet earth.
